This was way overpriced but we didn't want to drive any further. There is not much competition in the area. They do not take reservations but said to come on in anyway. At that point we were committed on the drive. Park is about a half mile down a narrow street. We got brushed by a lot of trees. At the end there is a steep climb with several hairpin turns. We were okay in our 35-foot diesel pusher but not fun.

Manager was very helpful getting us in our site. He then informed us that there was no WiFi and pool closed after October 1. Also no cable. He said the owner turns everything off October 1 and heads for Mexico. Rate was $60 CASH with no discounts. We would have left then but didn't want to drive down that hill and try to find someplace else. Manager came out later and gave us his personal WiFi password. Satellite could not find signal for TV.

This could be a lovely little park in summer when amenities were better. However, still not worth the price. We

This is a pretty park in a gorgeous area! It's up on a hill with relatively little level space, which means tight maneuvering for big rigs (and I think there's only one or two spaces available for those...) and not always a lot of extra space for parking a toad (like when someone's having a little gathering at the pool and they take up all the spaces...). The site we were in (15) had enough trees around it that it was very hard to get any satellite signal with our roof-mount (after a long time, our sat. finally found one to lock onto), and there is no cable TV. There were three washers @ $1.75 and several dryers @ $1.50. The pool area looked very nice, and the grounds were nice and well-maintained EXCEPT for some dog piles I found - primarily next to a site where I know the guy lets his little dog walk around loose a lot. The dog wasn't really a problem, but the owner needs to look around more to pick up after his dog!!! I also found other piles elsewhere. Will never understand why people aren't more courteous and diligent about this. Gives us other good dog owners a bad name, and makes for all sorts of pet restrictions, and it's not fair to the good ones!! They only give rate discounts to veterans. We

Price reflects a weekly rate. This was our second year at Dutcher Creek. We came back because the park is relatively quiet and in a rural setting. It is perhaps 1/2 mile from the Hwy 101 freeway. Distant enough to minimize freeway noise but still convenient for freeway access. It's a short drive Healdsburg and numerous wineries. Access is through a residential area and then up a steep, but paved entry road. A little intimidating at first but quite doable. There are only about 5 sites for short-term stays. These are near the office and by the pool. The rest of the spaces are scattered over the property and occupied by park models and 5th wheels for long term residents. It's a little strange at first, but it seems to work. The restrooms are dated, but reasonably well maintained. Hot water can be an issue if more that one shower is running or someone is doing laundry next door. One note of caution -- in April there are some mosquitos in the evening from the creek down the hill. We

We had originally planned to stay at a different facility when we discovered Dutcher Creek while browsing RV Park Reviews. We drove there to check it out and spoke to the manager. She had C17 available (their only pull-through) and we took it! Beautiful view, very quiet, and a level concrete pad with plenty of room for slideouts. Yes, the driveway is quite steep with switchbacks, but we made it just fine towing a 36' fifth wheel. Will definitely be back. We

This is a combo park, mostly 5th wheel longer termers, but very well kept. Newer sites by the smallish pool paved level with nice views of the valley from 500 feet up for shorter stays. Switchback paved road getting up there, but don't fret. If I were a monster rig with tow car, I'd call the first to see if room for you. We made it easily in 32-footer. Very quiet and laid back CA wine country style. Would stay again. We

Park is mainly for permanents and they are located in two different areas of the park. Up front there are a handful of spaces available for travelers. There is one pull thru (space 17). Half the sites are concrete, the rest gravel. Spaces have great views of the mountains and valley and there are lots of trees. Interior roads are paved. Road into park is steep with a couple of sharp turns but was not a problem if you take it slow. Trees were not a factor, nor were they in the park. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Wi-Fi is free and worked great during our stay. Highly recommend getting space 17, pull through, for the great view and the ability to use satellite TV. Very close to a great wine tasting region. This is a nice little park that I would recommend. We

The park entrance is a steep switchback road to it. Doable but low hang tree branches and bushy trees brushed the sides of our rig and it was a maneuver to dodge those heavy duty branches above. We Read the reviews before calling the park, so we were prepared for the steep entrance but the trees (based on another review) were kept trimmed by the owner. We have a 43' Motor Home and asked if they had a site to accommodate this large of a rig, Yes we where told, a pull in site. The pull in site would have maybe fit a 34-36' on the concrete pad. the rear end of our rig stuck out about 8'. Warning, do not try to get in there after dark, the branches/trees can not be seen. It was very quiet and peaceful for adult enjoyment. We visited Lake Sonoma and Healdburg, a darling wine tasting mecca. Found a tiny Gourmet Mexican restaurant in the strip mall next to Safeway that was beyond superb Beautiful scenery if you take a walk around the park that are very steep roads but none from the over night sites. We feel we were lied to about the size of a site for a Big Rig. The only discount we got was 5% Military. They didn't take Good Sam or Escapees. We will never go back . We

There are only about 9 sites available for short term rental. About half have concrete pads. Ours, probably usually reserved for the park manager, was just awesome! The others range from good to great. Traveling with a friend? One very large, beautiful buddy site is available. The challenge to this park is the relatively steep switchback road to it. We elected to disconnect the dinghy. Next time we will do that in front of MGM brake, next to the Shell station at the next offramp north. Also, our rig is very tall. Navigating thru the trees in & out of the neighborhood leading to the park as carefully as I could, I still made contact with a few branches. As long as the coach wasn't damaged (and it was not), it was worth it. We found a lot to do in the area but mostly enjoyed just staying at this beautiful site. Nothing for kids to do here, but it is a great place for adults to spend time just sitting around the rig soaking up the beautiful, quiet scenery. Very nice park managers. We

Tips for other Campers:

For a first time visit, if in a motorhome, take the dinghy up first to sign in. This will reassure you that the initially intimidating hill is very manageable.

We found this campsite through rvparkreviews, and we're very happy we did! The managers were extremely friendly and helpful. The drive from 101 to the campground was very easy,

yes you travel through a small neighborhood and go up a fairly steep driveway that is by the way very wide. We had absolutely no problems and when you get to the top the view is wonderful! Lots of space and options for turning. This campground is under new ownership and new management so do not be turned off by older reviews. We

Park manager met us outside after office hours and escorted us to a site (17) with a tremendous view of the Anderson valley. This park is on top of a hill with a very steep approach with 2 switchback turns in. Do not let this bother you, it is doable with any rig. We

visit the many wineries nearby. Enjoy the old Healdsburg downtown square with its quaint shops.

This is a very small park and reservations are highly suggested. We were very frustrated while traveling South on 101 looking for a place to stay in the Napa/Santa Rosa areas. We read review after review and became very concerned for where we would stay. Always using RV Park Reviews we stumbled across reviews about this park. At first reading about the road to get to the park and the steep grade (hill, well actually side of a mountain) was disconcerting to say the least. Actually, with good reason when you first begin the trek but we made it without problems in our 40' RV with tow. And wow were we glad we did. What a drop dead gorgeous view of the Alexander Valley and all its glory. If fact, we extended our stay for two more nights just to enjoy the view and surrounding wine country. Management was very attentive to the guest and although the park does have full time residents they are in a totally different section of the park. We stayed in space 14. We

We really liked this park a lot. It was convenient to the freeway, and the drive in was not a problem at all, through a very green neighborhood and up a curved driveway. Everything was beautifully cared for. We were in site 17, a pull-through with a lovely valley view out one side, and the very nice pool out the other. There is an old stone fish pond by the pool and plenty of comfortable poolside seating. The manager was as nice as any we have ever encountered. This place shows a lot of care and attention on the part of the management and we found it to be an excellent, quiet, scenic place to stay. We will return. We

Finding parks parks with access for 45' motorhome in the Napa/Sonoma area is limited mostly due to public road access. California DOT limits a lot of the local roads to 40' or less without a tow. Butcher Creek is right off the 101 and although the access road is via neighborhoods, the owners of the park regularly trim trees . Their private access road although steep is very navigable even with a tow. Once you get up you're in a little gem of an RV resort. the overnighters circle the pool, and giant trees provide some shade but not total. Access / maneuverability in park where nightly/weekly spots are are easy to get into. 50 amps reliable. Satellite is sketchy due to trees but tried twice to connect and second time found all satellite connections. Wi-Fi strong and reliable and free. Local shopping about mile away in Cloverdale. The Healdsburg area of wineries is about 10 miles away but no parks there especially for 45'. Would stay here again when in the area. We

Very nice little RV park up on a hill. The sites are right by the sparkling pool. The camp managers, were the nicest managers we have met. One went above and beyond helping us get a satellite signal with our tailgater. Lots to do and see in the area. We would definitely stay here again. We

Beware of a very steep hill on drive up to park. They could not find our reservation so they squeezed us into a very tight space around the pool area. Extremely difficult to back in a 35 foot trailer. There was no privacy as trailers were virtually on top of each other. Promised us a picnic bench, but never delivered. Park has several levels and all the really nice spots taken by the regulars. Lovely views is about all I can say that is good. Will not stay here again. We
